Speedy Death:
Mrs Adela Bradley and her resourceful chauffeur, George, are on the trail of a country-house murderer after a series of deaths at the engagement party of her god-daughter, Eleanor Bing. With a house full of suspects, she charms and schemes until the mystery is solved.

Death at the Opera:
Invited as a guest of honour to give the prestigious Evande Flint Lecture at Hadleigh Heights, Mrs Bradley attends the school production of The Mikado, which is interrupted upon the discovery of a corpse backstage.

The Rising of the Moon:
On the night of a full moon, during a performance by Madam Marlene's travelling circus, the villagers of Little Fordham witness the murder of Coralie du Bois, the female partner in the knife-throwing act. Are the killings motivated by hatred between villager and gypsy? Or is this simply what the murderer wants those investigating to believe.

Laurels are Poison:
Mrs Bradley tackles the ghosts of the past when she visits her old friend Isabel Marchmont at The Laurels, her haunted country house. With the resident ghost, a former soldier, and Isabel having lost three sons in the war - are the mementoes of the war haunting the inhabitants? When another death occurs, Mrs Bradley wonders just how much Isabel really knows about life in her house.
